SEO for a Property Management Company

Client objectives

To increase their local presence with a new website and domain name. This company has been in business since early 2000 providing a valuable property management service for property investors. Only until 2014, the company decided to focus more on the Internet to drive new prospects and property investors to use them as their management organization servicing large apartment complexes and multi-tenant facilities. The results after the first 6 months are impressive and work is still in progress.

06/01 – present: Remainder months:
Each month we create unique article writing, PR writing, blog posts, social bookmarking, document sharing, multimedia creation and video creation. Once approved by the client, we then distribute and share this content to targeted and approved locations. Additional backlinks created to relevant areas we have exclusive access to and are naturally applied over time. This creates a perfect storm for our clients where each form of media presented to the various locations tells the crawlers that our client’s message is important.
